The Great Pyrenees is also known as the Pyrenean Mountain Dog. Full
grown the dog is large with a muscular body. The long coarse outer coat
can be straight or slightly wavy with a soft, thick undercoat. Their coat is
weather resistant and allows the Great Pyrenees to live outdoors year
round in harsh climates. Ours are raised with goats, sheep, and
chickens. Their interaction with other animals starts at a very early age.
Pyrenees are the LEAST likely to bite a human.

In 2007 we added Juno and Nellie. They are Great Pyrenees/Komondor crosses. The Komondor is another old world dog that was bred for the purpose of guarding the herd. They have proven to be a great addition to our farm. While Great Pyrenees sometimes have a tendency to roam, these guys have never even attempted it. They are also a little more stand-offish with strangers which is a plus since visitors come to see the goats not them! |
| Brandy Karachachan. She is going to be a LARGE dog. She has adjusted well to the goats and the other dogs, and she is the first LGD that I we are having to work with regarding visitors as she is very protective. There truly are differences in the breeds - especially in the way they interact with humans, which is a very important consideration in selecting the right LGD for your farm. |
